I live in Michigan and we have some great pier fishing opportunities on the Great Lakes (Tawas State Dock specifically) for a variety of species. I make an annual two week trip in November to target spawning Whitefish and Crankbait Walleyes. I would like to try livebaiting for the Walleyes with maybe slip bobber rigs and large minnows (my fishing is 90% night). Has anyone tried this, and if so, to what success? Tawas State Dock is located at the northern edge of Saginaw Bay in Lake Huron.

welcome to the club thefishman and i wish ya the best of luck on getting them walleyes. i use to live in mi. and even thou i have not tried to fish the tawas area, but i have read allot on the great fishing in the area and of the great walley nite bite that goes on there.

I think slip-floating is a pretty good option as you can adjust it for depth and conditions
